How To Make Peace With Who You Are

Monday, October 4th, 2010

carver ed bierman 238x300 How To Make Peace With Who You AreI’m in the process of carving myself a new body.  Others call this losing weight.  However, I’ve lost weight in the past.  I always found it again.  So enough with the losing.  Now I’m carving.

I’ve carved away 18 pounds so far.  I have a long way to go, but I’ve created a journey that’s comfortable for me (no pushing myself to do more exercise than feels right now, no extreme eating plan), so I know I can stay on this road.

Part of the carving process required me to make peace with my current size.  (more…)

Want Something? You Could Be Right On Top Of It

Wednesday, September 22nd, 2010

peekaboo fallwithme 300x178 Want Something? You Could Be Right On Top Of ItLast week, I wrote about what to do if what you want isn’t here yet.  Today, I want you to think about this question:  What if it IS here and you just can’t see it?

We bought a new mattress a year and a half ago.  It was a memory foam mattress we put on top of a sealed wood platform that Tim build.

Here But Hidden

We loved the mattress at first.  Then it began to sag.  It broke down within a few months.  We called Costco and they said they’d come and get it (you gotta love Costco), and we ordered a different mattress to replace the one that didn’t hold up.

The day the pick-up company was supposed to show up, we took the mattress off the platform to move it to the garage.  I was shocked to discover that under my side of the mattress, a huge wet spot was mildewing on the mattress and on the platform.  Tim’s side was fine.

The reason for the spot isn’t really important—but if you’re curious, I was having major night sweats during those months, and memory foam mattresses generate more body heat.  We think I basically sweated through the mattress.

For all that time, I’d been sleeping on a big, mildewed water stain.  It was less than 10 inches from me, and I couldn’t see it.  It was right there, but if you’d have asked me if I slept on a mildewed wet spot, I would have confidently told you I did not.

You Can’t See The Energy

All physical manifestations—experiences and things—exist in energy form before they take physical form.  We can’t see that energy.

Just like we can’t see the radio waves that bring us our FM stations or the waves that bring us TV and cell phone service, the energy that creates our world is there but not visible.  It’s no less real just because we can’t see it.  Radio waves are real all the way from the station to our stereos even though they don’t seem to be real to us until the music hits our ears.

Every single thing you want begins to form on an energetic plane the moment you conceive of it.  All you have to do is allow it.

It might be just inches from you, so close you could touch it if you knew it was there.  But then you start asking why what you want isn’t here.  You feel like the character, Anya, from the Buffy the Vampire TV series when she says, “I’m trying to be patient, but it’s taking too long.”

The second you ask that question … BOOM.  Your creation, which could be seconds from taking physical form, retreats back into energy.  Here but hidden.

That big wet spot has been a big deal in my life.  Every time I’m tempted to say, “Where is my …….?” I remember that spot.  I remember that what I want is RIGHT HERE.  I already have it.  I’m sleeping on it.  I’m living with it.  It’s here.

For those of you who care—I don’t have a wet spot under my mattress anymore (I checked).  The new mattress (different brand) has been great, and I’ve discovered a cool herbal supplement that has left me night-sweat-free.  And that was a creation that was in my reality on the nonphysical level far before it landed in my physical experience.

An Easy Way To Release Resistance

Saturday, August 28th, 2010

3768591705 0530329beb 300x225 An Easy Way To Release ResistanceMy mother keeps many of her memories in a cedar chest at the end of her bed.  The trunk holds awards and clippings—I think she saved every newspaper column I ever wrote, and she has at least five copies of the first whole newspaper in which my first column appears.  The chest holds locks of hair and photographs and playbills.  And it holds some of my early artistic and literary efforts.

There’s the paper plate covered in uncooked pasta and sprayed with gold that I made in third grade.  There’s the misshapen sickly blue mug that I made in fifth grade.  There’s the stilted poetry I wrote throughout grade school, and the 20 page, 10 chapter “novel” I wrote when I was twelve (I think it started with something like “it was a dark and stormy night.”)

My mother treasures every one of these creations.  Why?  Because her only child made them.

Each of us is still the child we were when we were young enough to be making funky art projects.  Each of us is worthy of the kind of love that saves those projects.  Each of us deserves to have our creations treasured and celebrated. (more…)

How To Always Get What You Want

Wednesday, August 25th, 2010

4516719171 b1e5d3f71d 300x199 How To Always Get What You WantYesterday, Bea left a great comment that raised an excellent question.  She said, “I was wondering how to feel good when nothing seems to be working out as desired or wanted or dreamed in life.”  I offered one way of doing this in my last post, but now I’m going to simplify it even more.

Notice that in Bea’s question, she makes a connection that we all make—or at least it’s one that I’ve always made.  She connects naturally feeling good to having things the way we want them to be.

It’s a reasonable connection.  Of course we feel good when things are working out the way we want to them to.

So how can we always have things work the way we want them to? (more…)

What Are You Looking At?

Tuesday, August 17th, 2010

50257242 d2cf4beee6 200x300 What Are You Looking At?Tim and I are in our car.  He’s driving. I’m gazing out the passenger side window.

Tim says, “Is he any good?”

“What?” I ask.

I have no idea what he’s talking about.  We haven’t been having a conversation.  We’ve been riding in silence.

“Is he any good?” Tim repeats as if hearing the question again will clear it up for me.

“Is who any good?”

“Him,” Tim waves a hand toward the windshield.

“What?  Who?” I look directly in front of the car for some invisible “him” I’m supposed to evaluate.

“The sign.” Tim waves a hand toward the windshield again.

My gaze extends further ahead.  I see a banner hanging across the road. It announces Clint Black’s upcoming performance at a nearby casino.

“Clint Black?” I ask.

Tim nods.

I give him my opinion of Clint Black, for what it’s worth, and I ask him what made him think I would have any idea what he was talking about.  He says, “I figured you were looking at what I was looking at.”

DA DUM! Did you hear that big orchestral crescendo that denotes something important? (more…)

Are “Dead Wood Thoughts” Standing Between You And What You Want?

Thursday, August 5th, 2010

4237743 ce0eba601b 225x300 Are “Dead Wood Thoughts” Standing Between You And What You Want?At the end of May, thanks to some serious misalignment, the law of attraction brought to us an uprooted, leaning tree.  The “facts” are that a freak wind storm broke off the top of one tree, and that treetop fell into a second, dead tree, knocking it partially over.  Surrounding trees caught the dead tree and kept it from going all the way over, but its position was precarious.

The day after the wind storm, we got an estimate for removing the tree.  The cost would be $850 … which might as well have been $850,000.  We didn’t have the money, and we still don’t.

If you’ve been following this blog for awhile, you know that a couple months ago, my “what is” situation was a turmoil.  I’d just gotten sued over debt. I had no idea how I was going to pay my bills. We were in danger of losing our house. Blah, blah, blah.  The bottom line is that my mind was full of “dead wood thoughts.”

What are dead wood thoughts? They’re “how” thoughts. (more…)

The Draw Of The Vortex

Sunday, June 27th, 2010

Fawns 300x213 The Draw Of The VortexIn 1996, when I moved to the beach, I bought a book, Drawing For Dummies, because I thought that now that I was going to be a free-spirited divorcee, I would try my hand at art.  But I was so busy walking on the beach and writing that the book sat on the shelf.  Until 2008.

After my accident in 2008, I spent months off my feet and much of that time, I was on pain meds that clouded my thinking. I didn’t do much writing or reading.  Something about my pain or the painkillers or the shock of the accident disconnected me from my usual link with words.

Still, I craved creativity.  I wasn’t content to just watch TV or listen to music.  I wanted to bring something to life. Law of attraction reminded me of that book on my shelf. (more…)

Hitting The High Notes

Friday, June 25th, 2010

2952959460 e8db82296a 225x300 Hitting The High NotesSo there’s this Vortex, to use Abraham-Hicks terminology.  It’s an extraordinary font of energy—organized, creational energy that holds everything asked for by everyone.

I think of the Vortex as a sort of energy clearinghouse where everything that’s asked for is given, where every request is put into place in a cooperative way for the good of all who are asking.  EVERYTHING asked for, from a better tasting toothpaste to the vastest monetary fortune imaginable, is given in the Vortex.

Obviously, the Vortex is the place to be.

And how do we get there? (more…)

Writing Right

Tuesday, June 15th, 2010

7362788 300x197 Writing RightThis comes under the heading of DUH.

But I can’t go there.  Terger won’t let me.

Instead of duh, let me say that I am in the process of making a smart shift.

The purpose of this blog is to chronicle my journey along the path of allowing what I desire to flow into my life.  Because I decided to make this chronicle public, it’s also a forum for discussing and reaching for understanding of concepts most of us have only recently (as in the last few years) learned.  My intention when I began this blog was for it to provide clarity to me and to my readers about law of attraction.

Sometimes, in order to reach insights, I need to write through some negativity.  I reveal my unpleasant manifestations here because those manifestations teach more about law of attraction and how it impacts us.

In other words, I have a method to my madness.  But still ….. (more…)
